The sex scene is a fantasy.....didn't you spot the jarring cut from hug with sister-in-law straight to hug with blonde, and then later at the seaside with no warning he invites her round by text, and bingo ! nothing need be said, make with the black underwear. Of course it was completely at odds with the tone but it's meant to be, that's what fantasies are - out of context experiences.
I loved the humanity of this film, the simplicity, the humanity, but after a while the car began to irritate me....always spotlessly clean, even in slushy snow, at some moments the film felt more like an advert for the ultimate driving machine than a sensitive study of how hard it is to behave normally in times of extreme emotion.
Still a great film, intelligent, funny, wistful.
